History testifies that Ram is exotic and Ravana is local of the son of the soil.
The character of feudalism is that regardless of your religion, race or nation just occupy and rule the country. The Roman Empires adopted Christianity to sustain its rule. The three cursed wars that took place in history were not for religions conflict but based on Jerusalem's economic interests and that was the feudal politics.
At the root of Palestine problem is the conflict of economic and political interests. We cannot define in between Judaism and Zionism. Anyway the exploitation of a ruler is not considered by Hindu or Muslim, but his job is to exploit. The history of caste-based exploitation of Hindu society is thousands of years old. Untouchable Dalit, Shudras, Pasi, Jatis are not Muslim at all, What has the state of India given their dignity except article 15? Is the article 15 really guaranteed to their survival? No, the reality is different. This is not a question of Kashmir belongs to Muslims, because Kashmir belongs to Kashmiris, whether he/she is religiously represented by Hindu or Muslim, but all are Kashmiri as a nation.
Kashmir's last Hindu king Hari Singh, also wanted a separate identity for Kashmir. India-Pakistan does not respect this wish.
India is a state of many nationalities. There are Bengali, Panjabi and other nationalities as well as many indigenous people live in India. Can The Bengali nation be divided into Hindu-Muslims by the Indian state policy? Similarly, can we separate Punjabis by Hindu, Muslims or Sikh? But in the name of state politics, we make a difference.
There are three identities that need to be understood separately namely religious identity, ethnic or nationalities identity and state identity. The basis of ethnic identity or nationality is the specific language and culture of a particular region. Arab-speaking people are divided into several states but they are Arab as a nation. Kashmir has its own culture, which is different from other cultures in India. So it is foolish to look at Kashmir by the eyes of different religions like Hindu or Muslim. It is difficult for both Hindu-Muslims to think of Kashmir as a separate nation or culture. But how are the Muslims of other parts of India? The state of India has the guarantee of a cow life as a 'Gomata' (as a mother), but where is the safety of a Muslim's life as a citizen of the state? Muslim mosques can be destroyed, but the Taj Mahal, Red Fort, why can't these be destroyed? They are also made by Muslim rulers. Can such double stands call foolishness? On the other hand, whatever India is doing in Kashmir, so same Pakistan is doing in Balochistan. If you raise your hand for Kashmir, you too should raise also your hand for Baloch..
An oppressed nation, whether it be Scottish, Iris, Catalan, Kurdish, Baloch or Kashmir, but the question is whether you favor the oppressed nation? Are all nations are free? Is the UN a union of all nations? It can be called an association of states but not the nations of the world.
Many of us hate war. However, a war is expected when it is a prerequisite for peace. So please say yes and raise your hand for the Scottish, Iris, Catalan, Kurdish, Baloch or Kashmir. The good part of World War II is that after the war finished many nations have tasted liberation. I am wishing for World War III if the existing problems will be going to solve. And the war is a conflict, which begins at the diplomatic table and ends with the soldiers on the battlefield. People are dying, migrating, suffering from the ongoing war of different countries or states, but the rate is higher than World War II. Are we in the third world war without an announcement? It is a new dimension of global politics that the enemy shakes their hands in the morning and in the afternoon, they scold to each other.
I agree. Kashmir belongs to people of Kashmir and so far 60% of Kashmir is withing secular indian republic and 30% is with Islamic republic of pakistan. Pakistan has tried to use religion to motivate people of Kashmir to have a common culture with Pakistan. When that failed, Pakistan invaded Kashmir and grabbed 25% of land until indian army came to kashmir's rescue and saved the rest of Kashmir.
